Yes, well it's mindspring actually..
Take a look at this: http://www.jetcafe.org/~npc/doc/mail_arch.html
Also try http://www.jetcafe.org/~npc/doc/news_arch.html
Both are very good docs and are definately worth a read!
Also take a look at the Linux Scalability Project at
http://www.citi.umich.edu/projects/citi-netscape/ which has some indepth
info.
